How can insurance help with the weight loss program pricing?

Our weight loss treatment may or may not be covered by your private insurance plan, so you’ll need to contact your insurance provider directly for more information regarding your coverage. However, it may help to know that we’ve seen about 40% of patients get some or all of their first prescription covered. We have noticed that some providers cover only the first one or two injectors.

You can upload your private and/or provincial insurance information during your online visit, and our pharmacy partner will apply any coverage you’re eligible for before shipping your first treatment. We’ll also submit your medication insurance claim directly to your provider on your behalf so it’s one less thing for you to worry about.

How do I know if my insurance plan will help cover the weight loss program?

To determine whether your insurance plan will help cover your weight loss medication, contact your insurance benefits administrators with the following information:

your details
the Drug Identification Number (DIN) 02471477 or 02471469 (depending on the pen provided to you) or 02472945 for Contrave
your drug name

Even if your insurance provider covers this type of weight loss medication, you may need to meet specific medical criteria or provide documentation from your healthcare practitioner in order to be eligible for coverage.

Now that you know everything about how pricing works for our program, you’re ready to take the next step in your weight loss journey, whatever that may be.
